How did you like the event?

   The show was wonderful. The humor was played up with some extra bits that made me laugh out loud many times. The voices were particularly impressive, not only the individuals, but the chorus as a whole produced a gorgeous wall of sound that seemed impossible for the number of people singing. This was my first experience with Franklin Light Opera and I look forward to becoming a regular patron.

   This was INCREDIBLE!!! Everyone was so amazingly talented & SO funny! The director definitely paid attention to detail, ensuring that every actor had a different expression and movement. The standout performer for the evening was the pirate king- SO on point!! WONDERFUL JOB! Every single person involved on the stage and behind it did a stellar job!!

   What a fun evening supporting music and theater especially with a Gilbert & Sullivan show— great talent here and it shows. Netflix, TV can’t beat live theater to entertain the imagination.
